I was going through a guy's facebook page and he has a folder with art box pic. And I founf something I have NEVER seen before. Look!
Have you seen that kind of pencil drawing background? What set is that box from??? I love it!
By the way this is supposed to be the back of the box, not the front. Like back then when boxes had dioramas at the backside. :-\

There are a lot of people who make custom boxes. I have no idea who made this particular one, it is a nice job but very un-playmobil
-
Hm, that is beautiful! I wonder if it's a real playmobil box?
---edit---
posted this before I saw Ras's reply
-
well it looks real but could be a custom. I asked this guy, I know him but hasn't answered yet.
-
This is definitely NOT an original box by playmobil, not a back nor a front cover... just a nice custom... one of many!
BTW, here is another custom box made by a German satirical magazine. A really nice idea concerning the problems of unemployment... it's one of my favourites

Yes, I remember that one also!
The custom boxes can really throw you off sometimes, but are so funny to see! I like how the passed out pirate is being carried to the rowboat,.....classic!

Even 8 years later this box is still very relevant :lol:. Thanks for reminding us of a classic custom box, I like it a lot as well :clap:
-
Two excellent custom boxes there. As Ras says, the second is still very relevant.
-
Yes plenty of custom boxes around! Remember the super hero custom boxes? ;)
-
Yeah its a custom box for sure , one of the klickies is the viking special edition 2 and the other the old pirate . interesting background but prefer the original ones !!!!!!!!! :love: :love:
-
the first one is obviously not a custom, but it's very well done, i love it :)
it reminds me the custom boxes that a member from here used to make with small Napoleonic armies in Egypt :love:
PS i don't like it when non-PM fans make 'custom' boxes to reflect problems of real life like protests and stuff (I'm not saying it's a bad thing, they completely entittled to, I just find them boring :P )

I don't get this Luis, is it a custom or not? :P
-

I think it's not ;) :P

Why do you think that is no custom? :hmm:
You could see, the picture is 1. not in the typical playmobil style, 2. is glued or layed over a blue box (see top left), 3. the quality of the photo is not studio-like (like playmobil does): it's not sharp, the light is not good enough for studio qualitiy an so on...
It's not ORIGINAL.
It's a CUSTOM.
-
Its 100% custom. As I explained before one of the klickies is a custom based on the special viking version 2 and the otehr is a pirate from a pirate set from the early 90s..... why dont you believe me... :lol: :lol: :lol:

yes gaston it's not an originall box ,all the originall dioramas on the back of old boxes had a playmobil theme this picture has not even any figure on it only some nonplaym houses ;) (the klickys i think are not in the picture with the houses but put in front of the custom box )

It's not ORIGINAL.
It's a CUSTOM.
LOL i know it's not authentic!! Gastón and I were just sarcastically joking because we all keep telling him it's a custom over and over again ::)

I your first post, Luis, you said it's obviously not a custom, but I'm sure it was just a typo. I would know about that. I left the word "not" out of a message the other day and it was very embarrassing! :-[
